Electric Cars are becoming increasingly popular on US roads, there are now more models on the market available than ever before. With the prediction that in the US annual sales of Electric Vehicles will exceed 3.5 million by 2030, which will account for 20% of car sales, they are definitely here to stay. By driving an electric car you will be cutting down on carbon emissions and helping to save the planet and in addition to this they can save you money as there is no need to pay for gas, making it a cost-effective way to travel.
When opting to buy an electric car there are certain things that you will need to take into consideration:
The battery charge of the vehicle – the average charge of an electric vehicle will last you approximately 100 miles of driving before you will need to recharge. Some of the Tesla models can last for about 250 miles on one charge. If you need to travel for long periods in your car every day, an electric car may not be the best option for you but on the other hand if you are using your car for smaller journeys it can be a great choice.
Where are you going to charge it? – ask yourself if you are you going to need to fit a charger at home or is there a public charging spot nearby that you can use. A lot of the new models come with a charger which your car dealer will come and fix in your home.
Maintenance costs - Calculating the cost of maintenance is something you need to take into account. Does your electric car come with warranty or do you need to take out separate cover.
